#853 - Influx

Soon, another half month had passed.

On this day, an unexpected rain suddenly descended on the periphery of the small town's farm, which was definitely a rare occurrence in Lop Nur, a desert area.

According to Xiao Wu's weather forecast, the rainfall seemed to be quite significant, reaching the late stage of moderate rain, almost reaching the standard line for heavy rain.

For an entire day, the sky was covered with thick阴 clouds, and a large amount of rain poured down on the earth, covering an area of more than a hundred kilometers centered on the small town.

However, unlike the usual desert landscape, the entire northwestern part of the Lop Nur lakebed was now covered with patches of green vegetation.

Yes, under the attraction of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, although the state basically does not allow individuals to contract land around the small town, the official actions are exceptionally rapid.

Even more so, it has a higher priority than the infrastructure construction of the entire Northwest Basin.

In less than a month, with the help of the dozens of dense river networks created by Liang Yue, a complete set of drip irrigation, electricity, network, and transportation systems had been quickly built.

Then, under the guidance and planning of a group of professionals, various farms, medicinal fields, orchards, and even tea gardens were quickly created.

Among them, Meng Xiaoyu's oilseed orchard area was the most conspicuous.

In just over two months, this batch of tree species from alien planets had grown into hundreds of thousands of robust plants, as tall as five meters.

The slender leaves, like pine needles, beautifully coiled on the branches, all green.

At the forks of the main trunk, strings of red, round fruits, somewhat like longan, were hanging there.

With the help of the water source from Liang Yue's farm, and the continuous nourishment of the trace amount of Azure Tree liquid mixed in it, these oil plants have now all fruited, and a large part of them have already matured.

Just a week ago, Meng Xiaoyu had just urgently built a small factory near the northern hills of her land and ordered a batch of oil pressing machines from the coastal areas.

She harvested a small batch of ripe fruits from her plantation, pressed them into edible oil, and sent them back to professional institutions in Yanjing for testing.

This fruit, with a large red shell and about the size of a one-yuan coin, is like peanuts, olives, soybeans, sunflower seeds, and many other oil plants, which can be eaten separately, and the taste seems to be very good.

After being slightly dried, it can bake out a mellow and sweet aroma.

A group of people from all over the world who came one after another and were about to embark on their second trip to Xandar, also caught up with a good time this time, and together with Liang Yue and others, personally tasted this fruit.

The final conclusion was that the fruit tasted a bit like sunflower seeds, the texture was closer to peanuts, but the aroma also had a hint of red dates…

Like other dried fruits, it is rich in nutrition and filling, but the oil content is relatively high, and while delicious, it should not be eaten too much every day~

Subsequently, after tasting various dishes made with the pressed edible oil of this fruit, many wealthy people, dignitaries, and experts on the spot expressed their willingness to buy a batch from China at a high price.

Or, they simply wanted to take the agency rights for this thing, or even obtain the right to plant and sell it in their own country.

Unfortunately, Meng Xiaoyu had already received a cooperation agreement from relevant parties a few days ago.

Liang Yue roughly understood that some people in China seemed to want to divide this special oil plant into two parts, either roasted into dried fruit for consumption, or extracted into high-end edible oil.

One part is used for the domestic self-use of certain groups of people.

After all, Meng Xiaoyu's land is next to Liang Yue's small town farm, with abundant spiritual energy, and even the water used for irrigation is mixed with special spiritual objects of heaven and earth.

The benefits to the body are definitely not just the nutritional substances on paper.

The other part is to be directly transported to Xandar by Liang Yue's spacecraft as a high-end edible oil commodity for dedicated sale.

The purpose, of course, is to earn star yuan foreign exchange in Xandar, and then subsidize its own scientific research laboratory nearby~

Now, the three-month period has arrived.

As the departure time of the trip approaches, Liang Yue's originally quiet small town farm has become increasingly lively in recent days.

Obviously, this group of people who have painstakingly obtained the travel quota this time did not come empty-handed, nor did they come alone…

They all brought a lot of luggage, some were gifts for Liang Yue, the host, and some were bilateral cooperation agreements with China's favorable terms.

But most of them were actually goods they were going to take to Xandar.

Most of these goods are "local specialties" from Earth.

For example~ such as macaws, desert foxes, small pet monkeys, smooth-haired minks, and various docile and lovely cats, dogs, etc., such special pets.

In addition, there seems to be a relatively special traveler in this traveler team.

According to the list compiled by the intelligent brain Xiao Wu in the final stage of this period, the owner of this quota is actually from the Kingdom of Wakanda in eastern Africa~

It is said that facing such a tribal kingdom that has always been in a closed, primitive, backward, and ignorant area in the impression of the people of the world.

After confirming that this country had obtained a travel quota from the previous lottery, many people, many forces, and even national forces, naturally reached out to them.

Unfortunately, it didn't succeed in the end…

This time, representing the Wakanda tribal kingdom is Princess Shuri, the daughter of the current king of the country, who is also Black Panther's sister in the plot, a young, talented female scientist~

At the same time, she is also a very active and cheerful little girl, who became friends with Gu Na, Tina and others shortly after arriving at the farm.

In her luggage, Liang Yue found a specialty from the Kingdom of Wakanda, five large syringe-shaped containers, inside which were filled with a liquid metal somewhat like mercury.

I think it should be the famous vibranium.

… …

Soon, on the day of the scheduled departure, Stark and Pepper arrived on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Quinjet, and with them were Natasha and Liang Yue's former neighbor, the good old man Phil Coulson~

Like the last trip, these people were not lucky enough to get a travel quota in the previous lottery, they came to mooch a ride.

Among them, Stark had already greeted Liang Yue and said that he would also go to Xandar this time, and Pepper happened to be next to him at the time.

Liang Yue then asked casually and told him that one person only had 1 million star yuan of activity funds, and with Pepper it would be 2 million.

Actually, Pepper didn't plan to go, after all, as the current president of Stark Industries, she has a lot of things to deal with every day, but she didn't expect that she was finally pulled over by Stark~

In addition to this, Natasha and Coulson were purely here to mooch tickets.

Maybe Director Nick Fury also knew that Liang Yue didn't like him very much, but he was reluctant to give up such an opportunity to obtain alien technology, so in addition to Natasha, he sent someone's former neighbor~

In addition, on the domestic side, Meng Xiaoyu will naturally also go.

Aunt Liu, who was obviously busy to death, but had to take time out of her busy schedule, also received a commission from the country this time and came to Liang Yue's small town farm together.
